Default Too Cold!!!

I know its not the coldest place on the planet, but I finnaly have a nice 3 day weekend to get out and ride.

We lost most of our snow to melting and blowing last weekend and now its so cold I figure the plastic on my atv will crack just thinking about getting out and riding.

So I'm taking apart my old front gearcase and will try to post some pics.

Still cold taday!!! We were able to get out yesterday with the Ranger and the sp 500 and cut some wood out on the farm. So cold, the chainsaws wouldn't run right, but we still cut 3 ranger loads.

Everything was good until the box fell off our new ranger while dumping. Seems the assembly line workers put the pivot/hinge pins in where the box connects to the frame, but they forgot to put the retainers/screws in which hold the pins in.

A pin with no retainer will eventually ratttle out and the box will fall off when dumping. Took about 6 total hours of use. Luckily the gas shock and wire harness for the tailights kept the box from falling all the way off.

10 degrees in the morning here in MD (More record breaking) since its been
milder winters for the last several years. Yea I think by early Feb. we will be
in the full swing of consistent cold weather. I second the SPRING!
